any way against Poland," for ending
the German-Polish treaty.
His speech was unusual in that it
conveyed one impression to the listen-
ers and an almost opposite one to
the readers.
To his listeners, and especially to
the few thousand who sat in the
Opera House, the address decidedly
was one of uncompromising defiance.
His readers, on the other hand,
were men and women in every coun-
try and clime who became acquaint-
ed with at least the gist qf his speech
in the particular language of their
native land.
To them, and especially to those
responsible for the conduct of gov-
ernments, the written speech decided-
ly would seem to leave the door open
to further negotiation.
Emphasizing his words with a
solemn oath, the Fuehrer said:
"I can assure you, Mr. Roosevelt,
that I am steadfastly determined to
see to it that not only now but for all
future time no German shall ever
enter a conference defenseless, but
that at all times and forever every
German negotiator should and shall
have behind him the united strength
of the German nation, so help me
God."

efficient but its inefficiency is a func-
tion of its strength." Dr. Ford de-
nounced thoseadvocates of "efficient"

dictatorship.
"Do not misunderstand me as be-
littling the necessity of closing the
gap created by our present social and
political lag behind the tasks con-
fronting us . . . To recognize that
there are tasks we should have begun'
three or four decades ago is widely
different from trying to imitate the
effectiveness of dictatorships at the
price of freedom.
